Age of Rebirth

In order to be able to capture Xiyun Peak and Duyun City today, Yamashita Fengwen took a crazy approach. He personally served as the captain of the brave team. Those young Japanese soldiers saw that their commanders were dressed in the same attire as themselves. Faced with the son of a Chinese soldier just like myself, I was so moved that tears filled my eyes.

The Japanese soldiers, full of bushido spirit and determined to dedicate their lives to His Majesty the Emperor, watched Yamashita Fubumi with reverence and enthusiastic eyes, while shouting frantically, "Long live the Great Japanese Empire! Long live His Majesty the Emperor!" At this moment, the lives of these cannon fodder no longer belong to them, and the scene is very tragic.

These members of the Japanese bravery team who were inspired by Yamashita to not fear death are a terrifying force. Once released, it will be absolutely impossible for the defenders of the independent brigade on Xiyun Peak to resist. Yamashita is very satisfied with this Atmosphere, those treacherous and cunning senior Japanese military officers who followed Yamashita Fengwen had their own minds. What they felt was not blood boiling or seeing death as home, but a kind of frustration and shame.

An army commander who commanded more than 9 troops was forced to adopt such a method to stimulate the fighting spirit and courage of the soldiers and go into battle. After entering the attack position, the Japanese artillery began to shell.

This time the shelling was larger than any other time, and all the Japanese artillerymen participated. Yamashita Fengwen's order to the artillery force was to fire every cannon around you, with hatred and conquest against the Chinese people. , shell it! [

The guns fired by the Japanese artillery fell on the Xiyunfeng position like meteors all over the sky.The originally clean air in southern Qiannan was immediately filled with the choking smell of gunpowder smoke, and the violent explosion was earth-shattering. Xiyun Peak was like a small boat in a storm, trembling and swaying in trembling.

Chi Zifeng could no longer hear what the staff officers around him were saying.Even on the reverse slope of Xiyun Peak, where the Japanese artillery fell.Chi Zifeng also felt that he was shaking on the bumpy boat. The observation post left on the main position of Xiyun Peak was over, and he realized that the little devil was crazy, today.It may be the most critical day, I hope I can survive it, damn it, work hard!The big deal is death, and I can pull a few more little devils to back me up.

Guo Huawen, who was in Duyun City, also looked serious like boiling water.On Xiyun Peak shrouded in thick gunpowder, the Japanese army's artillery fire was fierce and the number of artillerymen was large, which was beyond his expectation.He had doubts about his tactics of using a heavy artillery regiment to carry out artillery raids.

The number of artillery was almost twenty to one. After pondering for a moment, Guo Huawen finally made up his mind. He picked up the phone, "Heavy artillery regiment, according to the established plan. Immediately attack the Japanese artillery, remember. After the artillery is fired, evacuate immediately Position." He knew that after this order was issued, the defense line would be evened out, and the heavy artillery regiment would no longer be organized.

During the attack on Xiyun Peak for more than ten days, there was never any artillery from the Chinese army. When the artillery units of the Japanese army first entered the position, they still built spare and false positions in a decent manner, but later, these were no longer needed. The Chinese army had no The artillery, just according to the order every day, fired the artillery into the position of the Chinese government army on the opposite side, and that was enough.

In the northwest corner of Duyun, on the position of the Central Army Heavy Artillery Regiment, dozens of large-caliber heavy artillery slowly raised their thick muzzles, and the small red flag in the commander's hand fell violently, "Boom, boom, boom," the guns A puff of blue smoke came out of the mouth, and the huge metal pellet pierced the air and flew towards the Japanese artillery position.

The artillerymen of the Japanese army, who were working hard, suddenly heard a strange voice in the sky above their heads, and looked up in confusion. At that time, their faces turned pale. They were all experts. From the screaming sound of the artillery piercing the air, It can be judged that it is the sound of a large-caliber gun about to fall.

"The enemy is shelling, cover up quickly," shouted hoarsely from the Japanese artillery position. It was only the Japanese artillery who fired at the squadron's position. Unexpectedly, a tiger emerged from the secret and bit them hard. , concealment, to put it lightly, people can run, but can heavy cannons run?

The bombardment target chosen by the Central Army Heavy Artillery Regiment was the Japanese heavy artillery brigade, which was also the most threatening firepower to the Xiyunfeng position. The artillery fell in groups, and the arrogant Japanese artillery finally tasted the taste of being shelled. The flames were shining, Pieces flew horizontally, and clouds of smoke bloomed on the Japanese artillery positions.

It never occurred to me that the heavy artillery of the Japanese army, who would drop cannons on their heads, was caught off guard, turned on their backs, and the cannons exploded. A series of explosions, the loud noise of the earth shaking, the Japanese heavy artillery was blown into a pile Heaping up the parts, it wasn't until the third wave of artillery fell that the Japanese artillery rushed to organize a counterattack.

The heavy artillery of the Central Army and the heavy artillery of the Japanese Army broke out since the beginning of the Duyun Battle. The first large-scale artillery battle, one side hastily responded to the battle, and the other side held back for a long time. The momentum was different. Guo Huawen was very pleased that , soldiers from Liu Zhi's direct lineage, No.11 Army's Heavy Artillery Regiment, did not run away in panic when the Japanese artillery fell to the top of their heads as he expected.

These Central Army soldiers showed good military qualities. Although the heavy artillery was bombarded by the Japanese army like migratory locusts, the cannons and the soldiers beside them were submerged in gunpowder smoke and rain. Cannons destroyed by cannons, even if they fire, shoot every cannon around them.

Compared with the scene where the infantry fought hand-to-hand with flesh and blood, the artillery battle was less intuitive but equally brutal. The artillery battle lasted for a full hour and a half. The heavy artillery regiment of the No. 11 Army was destroyed with all the artillery and more than four-fifths of the casualties The Japanese heavy artillery brigade was severely damaged, which was equivalent to knocking out the sharpest teeth of Yamashita Fengwen and pulling out the nail that threatened the defenders of the Xiyunfeng position the most.

This was a sudden artillery battle that was unexpected by Yamashita Fufumi, disrupting his entire deployment. The four-hour saturated artillery bombardment was not even fired for half an hour. The rest of the time was spent with the Chinese government. He fought against the artillery of the army, and the loss was not small, especially the heavy artillery brigade he attacked, suffered the most losses, and could not even afford the artillery cover and suppression during the attack.

Yamashita Fengfumi, all senior officers of the Japanese army, and more than 5000 members of the Japanese Valiant Team witnessed this fierce artillery battle with their own eyes. Looking at the brave imperial artillery who had been unbridled and pouring artillery into the positions of the Chinese government army, the Chinese artillery Under the cannon, it turned into a pile of minced meat, and the heavy cannon became piles of scrap iron.

The momentum that had been accumulated was falling back little by little. This was an unseen psychological change, but it could affect the fighting will of the members of the Japanese Army's Valiant Team. Yamashita Fufumi clearly felt this. The Valiant Team had lost most of its effectiveness. Suddenly The Chinese artillery who appeared gave him a blow to the head. He was extremely disappointed and annoyed, and Yamashita Fengwen's temples were throbbing.

He turned his eyes fiercely to Major General Ono, the head of the Military Intelligence Headquarters, and asked in a hoarse voice, "Mr. Ono, can you tell me? Where did the Chinese government army get their artillery from?" Feng Wen was equally astonished. Who would have imagined that the Chinese did not come up with artillery until this time.

"Your Excellency, Commander, according to the intelligence department's information, the Chinese government army used heavy artillery this time, with a scale of...," said Onoyu Lunji, isn't this nonsense, even an ordinary soldier knows it, He also used a major general intelligence minister to answer, "Baga, get out!" Yamashita Fengwen directly broke out.

If Ono was not a general, Hokumi Yamashita would kill this bastard with a knife. The chief of staff came to ask whether to launch an attack immediately. Hokumi Yamashita sighed and said: "Continue to bombard the positions of the Chinese government army, and then launch a conventional attack." The Valiant has lost As a result, Chinese soldiers used cannons to crush their will. [

A battle that Feng Wen was determined to win at the foot of the mountain was forced to end because of a bold and risky move by Guo Huawen. The independent brigade on Xiyun Peak resolved the biggest crisis virtually. The brigade commander Chi Zifeng felt this first. At one o'clock, the little devil's artillery had only been fighting for less than half an hour, and then suddenly stopped.

Next, although the gunfire continued and was quite intense, very few of the little devil's cannon fell on the position. Chi Zifeng came to his own judgment, and he said to the chief of staff: "Old man, it seems that the little devil didn't How much stamina is there, without these artillery, we are not afraid of the little devil's infantry, pass on my order, and after a while, give me a hard beat of these sons of bitches."

At around eight o'clock in the morning, Chutian reported the news about the artillery battle at West Cloud Peak to Tang Qiuli. At this time, Tang Qiuli was on a mountain not more than 30 kilometers away from Duyun, and he could vaguely hear the direction of Duyun. After reading Chutian's telegram, Tang Qiuli didn't speak, but murmured in his heart, "It's a risk, but it's worth it."

Around [-]:[-] in the morning, Tang Qiuli received a second telegram, which was about the Japanese attack on Guiyang. The battle of Guiyang had finally begun, and Shouichi Terauchi did not disappoint him.

Immediately, Tang Qiuli issued a combat order, "Assemble the 15st, [-]nd, [-]rd, and [-]th Brigades of the Duyun Right-wing Longquan Corps, and immediately launch an attack on the Japanese No. [-] Army's Yamashita Fengwen Department in the direction of Duyun. The ninth and tenth brigades near the mountain, under the command of Chief of Staff Chang Feng, quickly captured Dushan and cut off the retreat of the Japanese army. The fifth, sixth, seventh, and eighth brigades on the left wing paid close attention to the Japanese army in the direction of Guiyang."

Tang Qiuli commanded more than 15 troops, and finally took action against Yamashita Fengwen's No.[-] Army. No one thought that the independent division troops attacked Yamashita Fengwen's headquarters, but they stabbed a hornet's nest. A local battle followed the rescue There were more and more Japanese troops under Fengwen Yamashita, and it almost became a decisive battle with the Japanese Southern Dispatch Army.
